Robzilla Horror Science Fiction Comic Socks
Description: In the mid-'70s, Omega Man and Planet of the Apes were hot sci-fi films garnering a lot of public interest, so when you're looking for a new comic book title, why not merge themes from both hit movies and give it a vampire twist? Surely it can't lose, right? Sadly, 1975's Planet of Vampires didn't cut it and only made it for three issues before the title was canceled by its publisher.
Description: The Man-Thing is a powerful, slow-moving swamp creature and one of most unique and haunting characters. This empathic humanoid monster resides deep within the Florida Everglades, near a Seminole reservation and the fictional town of Citrusville in Cypress County, Florida. The creature was once Dr. Theodore Sallis, a brilliant young biochemist working on Project Gladiator, a secret government initiative to recreate the Super Soldier Serum—the same formula that gave Captain America his powers. However, Sallis's fate took a dark turn when he injected himself with the experimental serum during a mission gone wrong.
Description: The spaceships Argos commanded by Captain Mark Markary (Barry Sullivan) and her sister Galliot commanded by Captain Sallas (Massimo Righi) travel to the mysterious planet Aura to investigate a strange transmission of a distress signal. The spaceships are protected by the meteor rejector instrument but on the arrival, the gravity increases and the automatic controls go haywire and the Galliot crashes on the surface of Aura.
